Coastal proximity defines this Leucadia retreat, positioned merely a half-block from the Pacific Ocean. A custom double-wooden gate opens to a fully enclosed, private front courtyard - an uncommon structural amenity for the area. Bright Birds of Paradise and towering palms frame a concrete patio shaded by a red wooden pergola, extending the primary living space outdoors. Space rent: $1890.72/mo. The secure perimeter and established landscaping create a highly secluded environment immediately adjacent to local surf breaks. Schedule a private showing to experience the property in person. Constructed in 1956, this classic rollaway mobile home presents a 40-foot by 8-foot footprint within a prime Encinitas coastal community. The interior layout prioritizes spatial efficiency, organizing a single bedroom, a full bathroom, and a functional kitchenette into a streamlined floor plan. Natural light filters throughout the interior, illuminating a straightforward design approach that maximizes the structural envelope. Outside, the parcel distinguishes itself with a fully fenced yard. Traditional wood fencing secures a manicured lawn, providing a high degree of privacy from neighboring units. The site layout optimizes usable outdoor real estate, deliberately excluding large outbuildings in favor of open-air gathering spaces and a private, off-street concrete parking pad accommodating vehicles directly at the property line. Large succulents and coastal foliage deliver substantial natural canopy coverage across the exterior grounds. The surrounding location anchors the property’s geographic value. Situated directly west of Historic Highway 101 and Interstate 5, the address sits fractions of a mile from the shoreline. Immediate access points at Grandview Beach and Beacon's Beach offer direct routes to the water and prominent local surf breaks. A brief walk connects the property to Leucadia’s commercial corridor, providing immediate proximity to craft breweries, independent coffee shops, local dining, and the weekly Sunday Farmer's Market. For regional commuting across San Diego County, the nearby Encinitas COASTER station delivers highly accessible public transit.
